Renovations
Mackla Construction handles renovations from a single bathroom through to a full home, across Christchurch, Selwyn and North Canterbury. Managed start to finish by one team, no half jobs and no gaps between trades. Every renovation is backed by our LBP licence, full insurance and a 5 year warranty.
Managed Start to Finish
Renovations go wrong when trades aren't coordinated properly, work stalls between stages, or communication drops off halfway through. We run every renovation as one managed job, from a single bathroom through to a full home, with one point of contact the whole way, not a string of separate contractors you're left to coordinate yourself.
Whether it's a bathroom, a kitchen, or a full house, we scope the job properly before anything starts, so you know what's happening and when. Covered by our LBP licence (LBP139411), full insurance and a 5 year warranty. Renovations that touch the exterior, like new cladding or extra outdoor space with a deck or pergola, can be scoped into the same job.

A Proven Strength
Bathrooms are one of the renovation jobs we get asked to do most, and one we've had direct, named client feedback on. It's detailed work: waterproofing, plumbing, tiling and fixtures all have to come together properly, and there's usually only one bathroom in the house to lose while it's happening, so keeping the job moving matters. We manage the whole thing, coordinating every trade involved so it runs as one job, not several.

A full home renovation is a bigger job than a single room, and we run it the same way: one team, one point of contact, and a clear scope before anything starts. That covers everything from structural changes and reconfigured layouts through to full interior fit-out, coordinated so the whole house comes together as one job rather than a series of disconnected rooms.

Most renovation clients are still living in the house while the work happens, and we plan around that rather than treating it as an afterthought. For a bathroom renovation, that usually means working through the job as fast as properly possible so you're not without one for longer than necessary. For a full home renovation, we'll talk through sequencing and staging at the quote stage, so you know what to expect before the job starts, not partway through it.

Pricing
We don't publish set prices for renovations, since a bathroom refresh and a full home renovation are very different jobs. The main variables are the scope of the renovation (one room versus the whole house), whether structural, plumbing or electrical changes are involved, the specification level of fixtures and finishes, and whether council consent is needed for your project. The only way to get a real figure is a site visit and a proper quote, which is free and comes with no obligation.
